I normally don't like figures that are 200 points or more, but this Batman will definitely make it onto my Justice League theme teams. The Team Leader trait is fantastic and will surely drive opponents batty. I can't wait to field him in 500+ point games!

Well, I have mixed feelings on this one. 200 points is alot for a Batman. Sure he has alot going for him, Stealth to everyone on the team, He ignores alot with his improved movement, High defenses, Charge and a 12 attack up front..alot. But i just have a problem with Batman being 200 points. I will have to give this one a try on some high point games, but I want to say up without playing him I would rather play several other, cheaper versions of the character. Playing a few times will tell.

Mockingbird:How the hell do you do that?
Logan: Multitasking. Its my mutant power. Dont tell anyone.
IMHO, whether you use the 200-point version of this Batman depends on what kind of team you're building, as you are really paying for the Team Leader special (although the generous extra clicks of life and the up-front Charge are certainly nice). On Bat-family teams, Team Leader will be largely redundant -- but his generous keywords mean that there are other teams, such as JLI, which will benefit greatly from his presence. The big price tag definitely makes this Bats a tentpole, but giving everyone Batstealth can be worth it. In super-high-point games, this Batman will make other JLA heavy hitters disgustingly effective.
Just a nasty, nasty figure. The 100 point version will be great for Gotham and Bat Family teams. However this 200 pt. monster will just make JL, JLI and Outsiders teams just a severe pain. I'm still not sold on a 200 pt Batman, but if you pick your targets wisely you'll get the most out of his 200 pts.

This is one terrifying Batman. Obviously he'll do better in bigger games, but a four damage charge through...basically everything is a scary thought. The 100 point one is decent, though definitely lacking some move and attack which is too bad. Also that neither start with top dial OW. Still, scary little man.
I probably rated this higher than I should have, but I enjoy the fact that we are given a 200 point Batman. Yes he's just a man but he's also a VERY VERY rich man lol. A man with multiple contingency plans to take down any threat. Master martial artists, detective, strategist, and tactician. Most of all, he has the will to forge on where others would break (at least, in most of those alternate story lines)
Now for the dial. For his cost, he is surprisingly balanced. The figure itself is very playable with plenty of utility with perma-stealth and willpower as Batman should have. Now he is fragile but his trait more than makes up for that problem. I would almost call it broken if not for the fact that the pieces to benefit from it must be of a lower point value. But if you have premade teams already, just tacking on an extra 100-200 makes team building a snap with him
Way over the top for Batman, but I'm sure the fanboys love him. He's going to serve you much better in a larger point game, in order to better take advantage of giving your team mates stealth.

This is a great dial, but it seems waaay over the top for the character (and I'm a Bat-fan). I doubt I'll play it much; I like to build larger teams and he doesn't leave much room for other characters.
I really like this Batman but 200 points seems like a bit much. There are plenty of Superman figures that are less points. But I can't wait to play him. I'm glad that he has a rookie starting line. I wish he had the Batman INC keyword
While the superman from the set was defining, i feel this one also does the job. it perfectly reflects all that is amazing as batman. In each of his books, this is how he is portrayed. Lots of people feel that no batman should be even close to this, but he is what i am looking at for my primary batman.
